The members of X-Factor - Cyclops, Jean Grey, Iceman, Beast and Archangel - are professionals through and through.

The adventures of the original X-Factor wrap up, as the first five X-Men discover their successors are alive and well! But that may soon change when the anti-mutant nation of Genosha targets both teams, plus the youthful New Mutants, for extinction!
